Location: Saba

Today, we went ashore in Saba, which is an incredible island. We hiked up to the highest point, Mount Scenery, and everyone made it to the summit. It was a hard and intimidating climb with many stairs, but the view from the top was well worth the effort. After venturing back down, many people went to Jo Bean’s glass-blowing shop to see how she made all her beads, and some of us even got to make our own. The owner, Jo, took a liking to Chris and let him make four, even getting him to demonstrate his skills to other shoppers. We all enjoyed the grill night and are now getting ready to leave for the BVIs. We are leaving Saba early because the swell has disturbed the sediment, and it was decided that diving would not be worth it. This is our last passage, and it should be beautiful.
